We had an interesting discussion here on Javascript vs Python as a first language. While both are decent, I'd probably lean towards learning Javascript first and to then move into Python/PHP (backend) second, then perhaps into mobile like Kotlin/Swift (with memory management & design) if so motivated. For a beginner, having that immediate visual feedback is necessary to keep motivated. My primary concern with Python is that it even though it is a more "solid" language it is also command-line only, and that's just plain boring for most people who have no idea why they'd even want to create a command-line program, much less what a command-line is. What do you think?

Nearly a decade ago, I failed my first tech interview. It devastated me. It really gets you down doesn't it? Failure is tough and believe you me, I've been there many times myself. I'm not here to kick you while you're down. I just wish I had a video like this to get me back up and going when I was younger, and so I made one for all you out there to show there's hope. Pick yourself back up. It may not look like you're on the right path, but this is it.

Ex-Google TechLead explains how to have a better time at your job, so that you can avoid quitting it. The fact is that work can be very enjoyable and relaxing, but this requires careful navigation on your part to chart your course. Having quit numerous jobs myself and seeing others quit as well, it is clear to me that we don't quit companies - we quit people. We quit when there are bad managers that we resent, colleagues who we are jealous of when they receive ill-deserved promotions, or when we've just created our own hells through poor lifestyle choices.

The Ex-Google Tech Lead gives you his top tips on being highly productive at work. One of the keys to success is a clean desk setup -- check out the BenQ Screenbar Lite Laptop USB Lamp (https://amzn.to/2ERP7vW) and the e-Reading Desk Lamp (https://amzn.to/2xDguWy).
This video is really about one thing -- the lamp. And also, to raise your bar. Productivity is a way of life, and everything you do will feed into it. It is about how you structure your life, what you value, what you prioritize, and a shift in mindset. If you were expecting small little changes, you will get small little results. I suspect that most of us have never tasted success -- good grades don't count. When you succeed in reality, it is a ton of fun.

Ex-Google Tech Lead talks about personal finance and budgeting, and a philosophy on money gained through experience. One of my most prized items has been the BenQ e-Reading LED Desk Lamp: https://amzn.to/2xDguWy
What is the value of money? I think that is something that most of us will never know until it is too late. It is only when we reach the end of our lives that we will understand whether we've actually saved enough. You'd hope that you'd have made wise money decisions throughout and that you'd have nothing to regret -- although I don't think that would be the case seeing how many older folks are living nowadays. Quite likely, it will be either your children or your own future self who will pay for the items that you buy today. (Make no mistake though, the lamp is worthwhile and you can pass it on to your children).

Docker might sound like a complex technology, but in actuality it's a trend. As we all know, trends come and go, so rest assured that one day Docker will go away too. It just may not happen in your lifetime, but that does not mean it's not a trend. Now, you might be wondering what Docker containerization is, and how it can help make your web application more scalable, portable, and robust, or even save costs in server deployment & provisioning. Well, keep wondering. The fact is, no one really knows what Docker is or what it's good for. How do I know? I don't. And if I don't know, then no one knows.

There is a lot more to being a software engineer than just knowing how to code up a white-boarding question or memorizing a few stupid algorithms and data structures. These are skills that schools don't teach, and will take most people an entire career to finally get good at. I outline the requirements here, and all the complexities and hidden challenges of software engineering.

* ABOUT SITTING: It is highly unhealthy to sit for long periods of time. I always get up and take a short break every 30 minutes. Note though that even with breaks, it is known that long periods of general inactivity will put your body to sleep and you need to take longer walks/jogs throughout the day to keep up a healthy metabolism. Take care of your back/neck posture as well.

Ex-Google Tech Lead gives you his top 3 programming language picks for 2019 for new software engineers. Learn computer science, math, science, and algorithms at http://brilliant.org/techlead (first 200 get 20% off premium).
There are multiple paths to becoming a software engineer, and I think that they will differ somewhat between the "traditional" route (through college) or the "self-taught" route. I think it's especially interesting to consider what a decent "self-taught" route might look like, since that path isn't well-established. What's a good language to start with, and from there where can you go and how can you ramp up your experience? We discuss web-development, Javascript, HTML, CSS, Python, PHP, C#, C++, and mobile development involving iOS (Swift/Objective-C) and Android (Kotlin/Java).
I know I'll probably get some haters on this video, especially from the backend folks who think "web development" isn't real. Primarily, I think the visual interface aspect of web is essential to keep programming fun & engaging, which few other languages easily support right out of the box. To add to that, web is incredibly useful with plenty of job opportunities. From there, one can branch into a variety of other areas.

Ex-Google Tech Lead reveals the next big thing in app development -- the next big gold rush in tech. For interview coding practice mailed to you every day, check out http://dailycodingproblem.com/techlead -- ace your next interview.
The appeal of tech isn't about coding -- it has and always has been about distribution of content at scale. This characteristic used to be unique to tech and gated on the ability to code -- today however, distribution platforms have matured and opened the world of "content distribution" to anyone - no programming required. Considering a video channel versus an app, the two are remarkably similar -- both compete for attention, are consumed on mobile devices, generate revenue through advertising, and feature content ranging from garbage to high quality. The next big thing isn't chat bots, augmented reality, virtual reality, swift, kotlin, or even machine learning -- it is content creation, heralded by a golden age of video distribution platforms.

In our current digital age, it is more and more likely that you will run into a programmer in your daily life, whether it be for professional or personal reasons. Unbeknownst to you, a coder is often trained to think & act in a manner you might find unusual or even frustrating. I hope this video can help clarify the reasons why, and how to deal with such situations if you ever find yourself in a dangerous scenario.

Well, I hope you enjoyed our nice little walk in the woods. I've been meaning to make this video for a while -- all of these emotions, I experienced in my personal ventures. In the unknown there is a darkness, but there is always a faint light to walk towards -- it's a perfect recipe for hope. Good luck on your journey, but... if you do it right, you won't need it.

Ex-Google Tech Lead talks through Imposter Syndrome -- that feeling you get when you're a complete fraud and when you feel like everyone else around you is more qualified than yourself.
"Fake it until you make it" is a common "cure" for Imposter Syndrome. But keep in mind, that a good team is composed of different people with different skillsets. Of course you will be in awe of your teammates, because they will likely have skills that you don't have -- that is intentional and by design. Demonstrate your unique strengths while letting others help you where you are weak. Especially in tech, more important than the knowledge that you may already have, is your ability to learn.
Now, the real question is, do I have imposter syndrome as a software engineer? or am I faking my confidence in the video? Let me know your thoughts in the comments below.
